    Welcome to JUNGSHIN FITNESS®

    Imagine the body of a martial artist: the lean sculpted muscles, the

    mental focus and total body control that these warriors possess.

    Jungshin fitness can give you all this and more. Our sword-focused

    group fitness program trains the body to develop strength, agility

    and control in a way that no other workout does.

    Using a series of strikes, stances and combinations with the sword

    as a momentum tool (as part of our dynamic momentum training

    system) we develop a body that can start and stop from any

    position, integrating and encouraging muscles to work in ways they

    never have before to give you that lean martial artist body.

    This isn’t just a workout. This is where your whole body connects to

    your mind using the sword as a way to load and challenge you. The

    results show in not only the way you look but also how you move

    and hold yourself to create the body, mind and spirit you’ve always

    wanted.

    “I’ve tried all the workouts that are out there. Nothing keeps my

    Let the Sword Speak

  • The Story of the Sword

    To us, the sword is much more than just a momentum tool. It’s an

    extension off the body, organic in material, and made to fuse with the

    organic grip of the hand. It is designed in such a way with weighted

    handles. We utilize both long and short swords in different ways to

    keep the experience both interesting and dynamically changing.

    These handles and lever lengths allow for effective physics

    concerning creation and control of momentum, both away from

    spine and into contraction, using both the forces of gravity and the

    rotational aspect of our specific strikes and stances to create a state

    of equilibrium and balance.

    Our respectfully sourced wooden Jungshin sword helps bond

    these forces together, bringing together beautiful aesthetics with

    satisfying kinesthetic feedback.

    Jungshin’s Benefits

    n Constantly changing and dynamic flowing classes mean your workout is never stagnant and always engaging.

    n Builds confidence and helps develop self-awareness.

    n Improved spinal mobility and posture through specific sword movement patterns.

    n Promotes healthy core activation through lower abdominal breathing techniques.

    n Promotes weight loss and improves posture.

    n Creates a ‘martial artist’ body - sculpted, lean and ready for anything.

    n Brings the body and mind into the present moment, efficiently and with respect.

    Jungshin fitness is a group fitness experience that uses a sword as a loaded momentum tool in multiple planes of motion to create bodies that have the ‘martial artist look.’ We use the sword to start and stop in different strike positions while integrating different stances.

    The body responds by learning to create momentum from the core through to the extremes of the body while engaging the mind in a way that integrates the two together to build an ultimate living matrix of muscles and mind. The results are a body that looks good, moves well, and the belief that you can cut through all barriers to create the body and life you want.

    Jungshin’s Philosophy

    When you let the sword speak, the body responds, the mind quiets, and the results shine. One sword, one body, a complete physiological

    reset that revitalizes and energizes the body and mind to create a

    body that looks amazing and moves with confidence and energy.

    Our integrated, total mind, total body and total spirit sword focused

    group fitness workouts are based off of three principles:

    n Mental engagement for total body activation via non-stop sword focused power and active meditation techniques.

    n Patterns of stances and Strikes which challenge, reset and engage the body and mind.

    n Success and self discovery - discovery and development of how powerful each of us can truly be, both physically and mentally.
